This week, we’re sharing some news about what’s next for Bread and Better. After 65 episodes, we’ve had to make the tough decision to put the show on hiatus for the rest of the year as we navigate some big changes in our personal lives. We’re stepping back for now, but we plan to return in 2025 and will catch you up on everything then. Make sure you’re following us on Instagram @breadandbetterpodcast and subscribed here so you don’t miss it. Thank you to everyone who’s been part of this journey (a little nugget for our OG’s) – we can’t wait to reconnect in the new year. Love you all! xo


Important Note: If this is the first episode I IMPLORE you to please go back and listen from episode three onwards as the sound quality of our show is usually schmick but this episode was recorded under unusual circumstances!


Bread and Better is hosted by Tegan Padget a qualified personal trainer, sports nutritionist, chef, and owner of the online lifestyle coaching business called Fitty Tegs, and Alex Whittington a freelance feature writer, producer, the owner of Hey Al! Productions, and a mum of three. We aim to not only discuss the issues that affect us as women - but also how the issues we deal with, and how we respond, can affect those we influence - our kids, our nephews and nieces, our siblings, our cousins, our godchildren, our best friend's kids. We are committed to opening a dialogue where we explore generational patterns in the health, movement and mindset space, and make real change.

In our first episode with Deline, she gave us the lowdown on budgeting, building an emergency fund, and tackling debt. Today, we’re levelling up and chatting about the big stuff: insurance, superannuation, estate planning, and investing. Deline walks us through why insurance is your financial safety net (and why you need it), how to make the most of your super, and why estate planning isn’t just for the ultra-wealthy. Plus, she shares tips on getting started with investing, balancing risk and reward, and why spreading your money around is key. And of course, we kick things off with our favourite segment, ‘The Best Thing We Ate This Week,’ where we discovered something that made us love Deline even more!

]]> We're back for round two with Deline from Mazi Wealth, and this time we're diving even deeper into the money talk! In our first episode with Deline, she gave us the lowdown on budgeting, building an emergency fund, and tackling debt. Today, we’re levelling up and chatting about the big stuff: insurance, superannuation, estate planning, and investing. Deline walks us through why insurance is your financial safety net (and why you need it), how to make the most of your super, and why estate planning isn’t just for the ultra-wealthy. Plus, she shares tips on getting started with investing, balancing risk and reward, and why spreading your money around is key. And of course, we kick things off with our favourite segment, ‘The Best Thing We Ate This Week,’ where we discovered something that made us love Deline even more!

This week, we're welcoming back our resident psychologist, Emma Slade, back on the show. If you are someone who experiences anxiety to any extent or if you want to know how to support someone who does, this episode is an absolute must-listen. Emma delves into the multifaceted ways anxiety can manifest and offers a variety of coping strategies—both immediate and long-term. From practical techniques to insightful information, this episode is packed with invaluable resources. As someone who battles with anxiety and panic attacks themselves, I cannot emphasise enough how beneficial this episode is.

From navigating the logistics of finding the right professional to understanding the differences between psychologists, psychiatrists, and counselors, Emma offers practical advice to help you take that first step toward better mental health.


We also touch on what to expect in a session, how to ensure you find the right therapeutic fit, and the importance of not delaying care, even if you feel hesitant.

From their health and well-being to showing up as a great role model for their family, friends and loved ones, welcome to your new favourite poddy! 


We are the Bread and Better Podcast, a women’s holistic health podcast where we believe that better begins with us! We talk about the relatable issues that are affecting all of our your lives right now, but we don’t take ourselves too seriously, so expect laughs and a few swear words, like chatting about life with your besties over a cocktail or a coffee. We’re your hosts Alex and Tegan, two thirty-something women with very different careers and home lives. I am Alex, a podcast producer, writer and mum of three. And I am Tegan, a personal trainer, sports nutritionist and chef, who is solely responsible for myself and a pooch named Kenny. 


Together we bring you a podcast that we are truly passionate about with the aim to help improve the lives of all the women who listen, from tips for health and fitness, mental health awareness, personal development, inspiring women’s stories and more! We have been lucky to have been joined by so many incredible women on the podcast - from surrogates to athletes, to spicy dancers and health practitioners, and women just like you who have an interesting and inspiring story to share. We have realised by creating this podcast just how incredible the women around us are - but you are going to need to listen to find out for yourself.


Bread and Better is released every week bright and early at 4 am on a Monday morning - but whether you are an early bird like Tegan or a night owl like me - you can listen anytime, wherever you get your podcasts.

]]> Calling all of the women who are looking to thrive in all areas of life! From their health and well-being to showing up as a great role model for their family, friends and loved ones, welcome to your new favourite poddy! 


We are the Bread and Better Podcast, a women’s holistic health podcast where we believe that better begins with us! We talk about the relatable issues that are affecting all of our your lives right now, but we don’t take ourselves too seriously, so expect laughs and a few swear words, like chatting about life with your besties over a cocktail or a coffee. We’re your hosts Alex and Tegan, two thirty-something women with very different careers and home lives. I am Alex, a podcast producer, writer and mum of three. And I am Tegan, a personal trainer, sports nutritionist and chef, who is solely responsible for myself and a pooch named Kenny. 


Together we bring you a podcast that we are truly passionate about with the aim to help improve the lives of all the women who listen, from tips for health and fitness, mental health awareness, personal development, inspiring women’s stories and more! We have been lucky to have been joined by so many incredible women on the podcast - from surrogates to athletes, to spicy dancers and health practitioners, and women just like you who have an interesting and inspiring story to share. We have realised by creating this podcast just how incredible the women around us are - but you are going to need to listen to find out for yourself.


Bread and Better is released every week bright and early at 4 am on a Monday morning - but whether you are an early bird like Tegan or a night owl like me - you can listen anytime, wherever you get your podcasts.

We’re breaking down what personal development really means and why it's more than just "woo woo" stuff—it's about making life better by becoming the best version of yourself. Tegan shares insights on how choosing yourself first can positively impact everyone around you and dives into both the scientific and spiritual sides of self-improvement, like the law of attraction and the brain’s reticular activating system. She’s also discussing the power of gratitude and goal setting, sharing practical tips and personal stories.

We aim to not only discuss the issues that affect us as women - but also how the issues we deal with, and how we respond, can affect those we influence - our kids, our nephews and nieces, our siblings, our cousins, our godchildren, our best friend's kids. We are committed to opening a dialogue where we explore generational patterns in the health, movement and mindset space, and make real change.
